CHILD safety workers could be sacked over the death of Caboolture toddler Mason Lee after a damning report found 'gross malpractice' and systemic issues within the department which was meant to protect him.

The Courier-Mail is reporting a secret, internal report found negligence within Caboolture's Child Safety Office.

Ethical standards investigations are expected to be launched into their actions.

Mason Lee was found dead at a Caboolture home on June 11.

An autopsy revealed a list of injuries going back months.

Protests, including public rallies, have been held amid revelations Mason, who was 21 months old, had been hospitalised and then sent back home before he died.
